Currently BT phone account is in my sole name.I am wondering if I should change it to joint, as we are getting on and I have health problems. I pay rental by Line Rental Saver.
As it is now, what problems could be encountered with my spouse taking over the line, should my final event occur? Would balance of LRS be lost? Will changing to a joint account bring any problem too?

She will be able to take over the BT account by phoning their Probate department .But it might be worth asking now .
